Powell: "What we're waiting for to reduce rates is to understand what will happen with really the tariff inflation... everyone that I know is forecasting a meaningful increase in inflation in coming months from #tariffs, because somebody has to pay for them... some of it will fall on the consumer"

@RickiTarr I grew up in several countries - met people of all types - and it was so clear that people are people. And that some people are luckier than others. I haven't ever really thought of socially open as left. To me it was always about human beings. Fiscally I am not as far left, but certainly I believe that we need to INVEST in people and communities.

Best news so far this week:

My physical therapist just helped me reset my Apple Watch goals from 'CrossFit competitor' to 'successfully got out of bed.'

Finally, some achievable targets! 🏆

@jkirkendall poor pup. I remember how much our two trembled. I sire bickered down. I ran an errand in TORRENTIAL rain. Cars slowed to a crawl in some parts. There was a lot of flooding near our home. We live on a private road on a hill. Not sure if it still exists!!!! The road was a near river when I reached home finally this afternoon.

Afghan man gets a VISA to the US after assisting the US army in Afghanistan as an interpreter.

Now, without a warrant, Trump's ICE goons have arrested him and put him in detention to get him deported to meet their deportation quotas.

That is your reward for being an ally of the US.
